The Go feature was critical when buses/light rail/subway/MARC didn't have tracking, but they all have it now. If you catch a bus that is not tracking on the app, then definetly turn on Go. When all buses started getting GPS units in 2017 and 2018, it was a game changer. I remember texting that number to find out when buses were coming, and almost none of them were tracking. Thats not the case today.

Now, we still deal with no show buses, or buses that are tracking and then stop, or the unannounced diversion, but TransitApp wont help with that.
